Brand New have pulled their sold-out Glasgow concert following the damning allegations over frontman Jesse Lacey's alleged sexual conduct with a 15-year-old girl.

The 39-year-old singer issued a public apology for causing "pain and harm to a number of people" after his alleged victim, Nicole Garey, claimed that in 2002, when she was 15, Lacey asked her to send nude pictures of herself. He was 24 at the time.

The US rock band were due to play at the O2 Academy on Sunday in support of their final album Science Fiction but have pulled three forthcoming gigs in the wake of the controversy.
